All ridable slopes, drops & couloirs are marked as freeride corridors in different colours for three difficulty ratings: blue for technically easy terrain, yellow requires advanced to very advanced ability & red is extremely difficult terrain that is partially exposed & therefore reserved to crack riders. Short ascents are marked with red lines. The Freeride Maps are based on topographic maps 1:25, 000. They contain all essential information about the terrain that is necessary for planning & going freeriding. The maps are printed on water resistant & indestructible paper. On the back side, the maps include all relevant planning, safety & rescue information. ...

Falk, one of Germany's leading publishers of street plans, produce their town plans in two different formats. Falk Extra plans are folded in a standard way, where the whole map can be opened to view the entire area it covers. For larger cities, the same mapping is also published with a special folding system designed to show only a small section of the map at one time. The whole map can be opened but it will be cut in several places. Many find these street plans very user-friendly & easier to handle than conventional maps. The plans, which cover towns with their outer suburbs, indicate main landmarks & public buildings & show all the public transport facilities, one way streets & car parks. Plans of lager cities include a separate map of the town centre at a more detailed scale & a diagram of the underground & the suburban rail network.

- MAP TITLES: the grids shown on our website serve both the civilian & the military 1:50, 000 topographic series. Although the areas covered by maps in both series are identical (apart from some border or coastal sheets), occasionally map titles differ – only one title is shown on the grid, usually the military one. In Galicia, the Basque country & in the Catalan speaking areas the tendency now is to use local place names rather than the often better known Castilian ones. Where possible, both versions are included in our titles. Map titles listed on our website are based on information received by us at the time of publication, but sometimes maps arrive showing a completely different title! As long as the map number is as ordered, the correct map has been supplied.

Garoua IGN Map

One of the titles in a series of topographic maps covering much of north-west Africa, produced as part of the IMW* project in 1960’s. Each map covers an area spanning 6° in longitude and 4° in latitude. There is some variation in colouring and the depiction of terrain, but hill-shading, spot heights and contours are used to show the general relief. Additional graphics show features such as dunes, rock outcrops, cliffs, sand areas, escarpments, marshes, seasonal lakes and watercourses, and areas liable to flooding. Bathymetric contours are also included.Communications detail includes roads, major trails and railways, although there is some inconsistency in colouring and the extent of classification, e.g. not all maps distinguish seasonal roads. On most maps intermediate
road distances are indicated on main routes. Symbols show airports, mosques, mines, oil and gas fields, lighthouses, ruins and significant isolated buildings. Administrative boundaries are marked and latitude and longitude lines are drawn at 1° intervals, with further margin ticks at 1’ intervals. The map legend is in French only on some sheets, and in English and French on others.*The International Map of the World was a project conceived in the early 20th century to compile a world map series at 1:1, 000, 000 through the efforts of participating nations. The value of the program has declined since 1970 and the IMW is no longer regarded as an active international series.
